One of Metro Manila’s 17 districts, Makati makes up the very core of the the National Capital Region of the Philippines. Here, visitors will be introduced to towering steel-clad skyscrapers, diverse range of entertainment hotspots as well as culture and historical landmarks.

Located on Aguirre street off Arnaiz Avenue, which a posh, upscale area comprising high-end shopping malls, modern office buildings, first-class restaurants, bistros and bars, is Somerset Millennium Makati. Shopping complexes in the vicinity include the Glorietta, The Landmark and Power Plant shopping malls. And short 15-minute walk away from the residence is the Ayala train station, which links the area up with the rest of Makati.

For your culture fix, make a trip to the UNESCO World Heritage site, the Nuestra Señora de Gracia Church, which was built by the Augustinian friars. The still-functioning Neo-Romanesque-Gothic style church's construction dates as far back as early 1600s and is a popular wedding venue. Another landmark worth visiting is the Ayala Museum, which exhibits the rich and vivid history of the Philippines from as early as the Mactan, Cebu battle to the country's relatively recent struggle for democracy. It is also home to paintings by notable Filipino painters such as Fernando Amorsolo, Juan Luna and Fernando Zobel.
